Are you a friend user? Do you use your friends based on what they can do for you? Do you have high standards and kick people to the curb if they don't meet your expectations of friendship? Or are you somewhere in between?

Each of my friends are individuals. They each are important by thier individuality.

Or are you somewhere in between? I find myself judging a lot of friendships by what we can do to help eachother in every way; monetarily, emotionally, intellectually. But yes, I think sometimes I use w/o thinking about how harmful that can be. As long as I recognize it though, and try to think about people's feelings, I'm not tooooo bad off.

That's an honest answer, thank you for that, I wish others had as much insight into themselves...the world wouldn't be as f*cked up I think Kudos...

friends are earned and lost easily if you use them. they are too valuable to me for me to use them just for me.

I love my friends the way they are. They are all different; they all add a unique interest to my life; and I hope they all feel that they are getting what they need from me. Sometimes I feel like all I do is take from my friends; and yet they keep giving. I hope they would never think I was using them. I like the fact that I can count on some friends to cry with; some to gossip with; some to make me laugh; some to talk about boys; and some for all of those things at different times. I love their individual charms.

I do not use anyone. My friends are my friends because I like them and they like me.

I love their individual charms. You listen to me little missy.... and you listen good now. You give me so much, you ALWAYS listen to me, you ALWAYS have kind words for me, you ALWAYS give me a swift kick in the ass when needed.... You don't take anything from me that I am not willing to give you. You are a blessing to me, everyday... Do I make myself crystal clear? And I know about 5 other people who will kick your ass if you don't listen, cuz they will say the same thing to you. Get it, got it, GOOD.

Is someone coming to kick my ass??? Not now, cuz I think you'll look at it as a gift and not a punishment....

I don't use friends, and I'm honest...isn't always a positive trait. Most of my friends end up disappearing because of legal issues, and they don't tend to come back. Don't have many, but those who are friends are like blood to me.
